Nights under the Northern Lights: The Itinerary
Day 1: Arrival and Aurora snowmobile tour
You will be picked up at Luleå Kallax Airport or train station and taken to Brändön Lodge, where you will receive your warm winter clothing after you have settled into your cabin. In the evening, a delicious 3-course dinner awaits you in the restaurant. Afterwards, you'll head out on a 2.5-hour snowmobile tour to search for the Northern Lights (2 persons per snowmobile, single driver for extra charge). During the tour, you will drive to some of the best places near the lodge to observe the night sky and learn interesting facts about the unique natural phenomenon.
Full board begins with dinner on arrival day and ends with breakfast on departure day.

Day 2: Candlelight dinner at the Aurora Hideaway
After a hearty breakfast, you have the day at your leisure. How about exploring the area on your own or going tobogganing? Lunch is served at the lodge. In the evening, it's time for a candle light dinner at the Aurora Hideaway. A snowmobile transfer will take you to the mobile restaurant on the frozen ocean. The fireplace crackles and candles create a cosy, romantic atmosphere. While your meal is being prepared, you can keep an eye out for the Northern Lights (duration: 2.5 h).
Day 3: Free day and Aurora snowshoeing
After a hearty breakfast, it's the perfect time for a stroll around the lodge and along the snowmobile tracks over the frozen sea. You can also go on one of the additional activities, which are offered for an extra charge (see "Extras"). Lunch will be served in the restaurant. In the evening, strap on snowshoes and head out for a walk in the forest. Here you build a fire and enjoy dinner under the stars (duration: 3 h).
Day 4: Departure
Depending on your departure time, you can still relax at the lodge and enjoy the ambience before you are transferred to the train station or airport on time. There, you can say goodbye with many new impressions and wonderful memories and start your journey back home.
Accommodation:
The main building of the Brändön Lodge is a log house that accommodates a restaurant, a lounge and relaxation area. Surrounding the main building are several log cabins facing towards the sea and the Luleå archipelago. Each cabin has a bathroom, two bedrooms with two single beds in each, a lounge and a covered veranda. The single beds in one room can be pushed together to form a double bed.
If you wish, you can book additional nights and activities (see "Extras"). Feel free to contact us for this!
Note:
To drive a snowmobile you have to be at least 18 years old and have a valid driver's license. Please note that children can only ride on the snowmobile if they are of a certain size. This is at the discretion of the guide. Smaller children will sit in a sledge pulled by the guide's snowmobile.
Additional Information:
The order of tours and activities within this itinerary may vary due to weather conditions and other contributing factors that must be taken into account by the guides when planning your tour. You will receive the exact order of activities once you arrive on site. The far north can have fluctuating and unpredictable weather with very strong temperature differences. The safety of guests and animals comes first, and for this reason, we reserve the right to change the itinerary and intensity of activities if and when needed. This involves both adjustments due to insufficient snow (meaning we cannot drive the sleds) or too much snow (snowstorms and extreme cold can cause accidents and various other problems). The required adjustments and fallback options in rare cases are based on the day-to-day conditions and can be compensated by shorter or longer daily stages, alternative accommodations, or even single day trips. In extremely rare cases we may organise alternative transport (ie. cars, quad bikes, etc). Feel free to contact us if you would like a more detailed assessment of this tour and travel period. Optional activities have very limited availability; we recommend booking them well in advance, often weeks or months before departure, as they may be fully booked by the time of travel.
